The forum said there was no justification for the present raging violence ripping across various parts of the state after lawmakers in the State House of Assembly had passed a law banning open grazing.
The forum expressed shock and bewilderment at the recent attacks unleashed by suspected armed herdsmen on Waya in Jato-Aka and Mbanyiar communities in Kwande and Guma local government areas of Benue state, saying that there is a deliberate ploy to disturb the peace of Benue citizens and throw the state into yet another round of bloodshed.
“Considering the insufficiency of manpower to deal with trouble makers, we call on the Federal Government, especially the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, to deploy more personnel to rein in the activities of these attackers. The forum expressed delight at efforts put in place by Governor Ortom to return Internally Displaced Persons, IDPs, to their villages, stressing that in a situation where violence and other forms of attacks become rampant on a daily basis, it may be too difficult to ensure peaceful coexistence.
